Premium membership?

I've used the basic membership mostly and was curious as to whether the premium is worth it? Is it easy to use? I don't know a lot about all these different aspects of macros and this and that or whatever else the premium has to offer. What's your take?

Thanks! :#

    There's really only one feature that seems to be offered on premium only that I would truly want, and that's the ability to "Quick Add" carbs, fat, and protein for a food. While I'm sure that the reporting would likely be useful, I really don't feel that it justifies the high monthly (or annual) cost. The ads don't bother me at all.

    I use it for the macro tracking, which I find easier to track than calories alone. So i don't mind the monthly fee. Between the gym fee and MFP pro, i'm sitting at about $50 per month. Now for the best part, I am no longer spending $250+ per month on my costly and fattening beer habit, so its totally worth it to me.

    I like it. I've played around with having different calorie targets per day (ie, having lower counts on the weekdays and higher counts on the weekends because I always end up eating more on the weekends). I figured I'd try it. Still cheaper than basic WW. XD (which I had also played with)

    This made it worth it to me. And I paid for the full year, thru the Play store, which included a free trial month, so it averaged out to less than $4 a month, much less than I previously spent on junk food in a day.

    $50 per year is a high annual cost to you? Interesting.

    I use premium. It’s worth $50/year to just avoid all of the ads in the newsfeed.

    I like it. No ads. I use the ability to switch between g and % a lot.
